May 29, 2013
Wheeling, West Virginia (May 29, 2013) – Despite a self described slow start to the 2013 racing
season, Travis Braden is sitting an impressive third place in the ARCA/CRA Super Series Powered by
JEGS Points Standings heading into the third race of the campaign; the Springport 125 at Springport
Motor Speedway in Springport, Michigan this Saturday, June 1st.
In the 19-year-old's last event, the second race of the ARCA/CRA season at the fast ¼ (0.250) mile
high-banked paved oval of Anderson Speedway in Anderson, Indiana back n May 4th for the Sell It
Again Sam 125 Presented by Great Deals Magazine, Braden qualified fifth and in what was described
as a 'rough race' for the Mountaineer State driver, he would nevertheless finish sixth in the race. After a
May 11th rain out at Berlin Raceway, Braden is ready to get back behind the wheel.
"Anderson showed us that after our bad day at Toledo (Back on April 20th in the Border Wars 7-Up
150), we really weren't that far off we just missed it that day. We had a top five car all weekend and I
thought throughput most of the race we had the speed to go up and win it." Explained the Wheeling,
West Virginia driver. "Unfortunately with a mistake on my part and another incident that put us to the rear twice, it was hard to get to the front."
Despite the obstacles, Braden still managed a solid sixth place showing, but was not satisfied with the outcome. "I was a little disappointed, but satisfied that we actually finished a race at Anderson without needing a whole new car for once." Laughed the Mountaineer State driver. "Going to Springport I plan to do the same as always and focus on the task at hand and bring home the best finish possible."
In Braden's only other appearance at the 3/8s (0.375) mile semi-banked paved oval in Central Michigan, Braden came home with an impressive fourth place showing. "Qualifying will be a focus to get us a good starting spot, and in the race it's all about patience and knowing when is the right time to do get the job done." He continued. "I'm confident we'll have a good enough car and it will just come down to seeing if I can put it all together for that 'W'" Braden ended.
